Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3,4-dimethoxybenzeneethanol and 62,8 g of chloroacetaldehyde diethylacetal in 1 l of absolute ethanol saturated with anhydrous hydrochloric acid, was stirred at ambient temperature for 24 h. The solvent was evaporated and 88,4 g (88,8%) of 1-chloromethyl-3,4-dihydro-6,7-dimethoxy-1H-2-benzopyran was obtained by distillation.
